Just started the video, and (hoping you don't know) no, caring about mental health is a gigantic reason to NOT partner with Better Help. They are a bunch of scammers taking advantage of vulnerable people who need help but can't afford or find adequate traditional face to face services where they live. Please just don't support them anymore.

[@dustynlane656]

Not to mention they broke their privacy policy and shared people's Intake Questionnaire answers with advertisers including Facebook, Snapchat and Pinterest, according to the FTC's website. They even shared millions of users' and visitors' email addresses. Annie, please don't support this company anymore

[@mtouny13]

Came to post this!!!! They are terrible for the clinicians too (Saying this as a psychologist who has heard from others and had job postings target to me). Their structure encourages burn out and unfair compensation. They also do not vet clinicians well and have heard stories from my own clients about clinicians saying unhelpful/inappropriate things.

[@KellyLoom1s]

Thank you for bringing this up.

[@vicky_thegiantpossum]

I didn't know !!

[@eluvcp]

They also don’t follow HIPPA rules and regulations and they sell your data to data brokers.

[@ArtemisNYC]

We have a saying in my community; "The Craft is not a substitute for therapy, but it can be therapeutic". Great topic.

[@annerobertz4712]

Instead of 'just' spending it on my sofa watching 'anything' on the TV, I have spent the past two week ends organising the scrolls, spells and rituals I have accumulated over the past year into my book of shadows. I feel so much better already knowing I have accomplished that little 'something' that brings me joy 😊

[@rebeccacline586]

What a great idea! Thanks for sharing

[@NickedBlade]

i found my love of being quietly sitting in the woods and one day i had a finch land on my leg, we made eye contact and the sudden rush of excitement melted into a realization that we were both animals with the same goals of survival and we could live together in peace the bird hoped down pecked at the ground and flew off as if nothing was amiss. it took a few years but i left the church and recently devoted to becoming Pagan. i feel a connection i never really had before. if religion works for some one, i hope they are blessed by it, i love my free spiritual connection to nature and it works for me and i am blessed by it )O( SO MUST IT BE

[@AngiePhoenix85]

It is true. Ever since I spent more time keeping my mental health a priority, I began noticing how much I enjoy spending time to myself. I am a beginner eclectic practictioner. Lately, I have been enjoying herbalism, for both green & kitchen magic. This can be very calming and soothing to my mind.

[@bernieturley977]

I love how natural you are, love your dog

[@AngiePhoenix85]

@@bernieturley977 Huh? Lol

[@maliahjoy2959]

Same

[@Aaronarmstrong03]

What’s it like having a pet polar bear?😂🥰

[@Alog74]

I stopped yesterday for the first time and took in the environment around me. I did not move or speak or think. I just stopped and observed as for the first time seeing the things around me that I have seen everyday. But I saw it differently. I was present in my body mind and spirit. Like Annie said. This experience is very calming.

[@hopi9761]

This is the meaning of life ❤

[@lilykatmoon4508]

As a person who also suffers from anxiety, I’ve spent much of my life feeling I was at the mercy of my mind. Since I’ve discovered witchcraft, I’ve felt more empowered than ever. I also get set back by overwhelm and procrastination often combined with some escapist behaviors still get I the way, but with every time I actively engage with my craft, I feel empowered over my anxieties and troubles.

[@activistwitch]

Witchcraft has fallen so easily within my life exactly because of the ritual routines. As an autistic person I naturally end up ritualisinng everything so having something I can rely upon without it being just repeated same thing and boring is the greatest thing for me!

[@mariachijazmin3970]

I cannot usually get to spell work. But what I do every day is learn something new each day on the craft and tending to my herbal garden. So learning and laying the foundation to my witchy supplies makes me feel good 😊

[@tiffanimilburn8885]

One of the things I like about my practices that it gives me a sense of control. I’m looking for a job and a lot of things are up in the air, so it’s good to have that sense of control over something.

[@D.M.T]

Better help are an awful organisation. There are many many video essays about these available on KZbin

[@Ohdakkeinen]

I’m also disheartened when I see a KZbinr advertising Better Help. : / Especially so, when that KZbinr discusses ethical/moral issues in their videos. Cognitive dissonance is truly distracting. (For instance, according to FTC, Better Help has shared customer health data, and thus broke its privacy promises. And that was done in order to advertise the company to new customers. This just a single example of bad business practice out of many. Please, do your research before you sign-up.)

[@floristfindspeace]

dude, too many content creators are sponsored by them, and it pisses me off

[@royvogel2023]

At 77 and going strong ❤️♍️🗝🧙🏻‍♂️

[@dishwaterdarling]

I’ve been much happier since I started practicing a few years ago. One thing that I like to do is a weekly tarot reading for mindfulness.

[@elfrog98]

Discovering witchcraft for what it truly is has soothed my soul by giving it what I didn't realize it was searching for 💜

[@scissoritz]

Thank you. Your work always brings calmness and inspiration. So much atmosphere in every video, you feel embraced by a different world, and it transitions into your own, making the magic around you almost touchable

[@lulumoon9]

Annie, thank you so much for connecting the benefits of witchcraft to mental health. While I have been dealing with mental health issues all of my adult life, I did find therapy and medication for bipolar disorder to be very helpful, but my practices in the Craft have very much given me some structure, peace, and a purpose. I feel I am no longer just along for the ride through this life, but now more in the driver's seat, directing my life with intention.

[@fareebug8439]

What an incredible topic!!! I hope you are doing well. Sending blessings to you and your fur kiddos. 🐾❤️🐾.

[@Difficultureshock]

I can't stop watching your pup through this video. Guess I'll have to watch it again so i can actually listen to what you're saying. Lol 🥰

[@LiteraryStoner]

Doggie 🐶♥I've been trying to meditate almost everyday and actually practicing the esbats and am excited for Ostara tomorrow! I've been Wiccan for years yet haven't practiced a whole lot. I aim to fix that this year.

[@katherinephx.7623]

Loved your video. One great thing I find that helps my mental health is spending time with animals. It looks like you enjoy that as well. 😊 Animals are very magical. Blessed Be from Phoenix, Arizona 💖🌵😎🧙‍♀️🐈‍⬛

[@tannaorr4133]

Lovely video!

[@low-fi1103]

I love your videos, you are such a beautiful person. I relent complimenting you, only for the sake of disturbing your peace.

[@nancyfaiella6376]

Some great food for thought. Thank you.

[@kizzyshealingpraktijk]

I needed this, thank you 🙏

[@bernieturley977]

Love how natural you are, love your dog 🐶.

[@peeppaa1997]

Excited to watch! I’m earlyyy

[@SimplyRochelleParanormal]

Love Ur videos Annie!! The Craft has helped SO MUCH mentally for ME 🩷👍💯👑💜

[@silentmantra4924]

Thank you for this video! ♥️ You inspire me to do some spell craft tomorrow. Goddess bless you

[@daisyadair1164]

I absolutely love this approach 💜💜💜

[@kailimagdalena]

Love this video, such an underrated & important topic 💖 you covered it beautifully!! Thank you for sharing with us🦋

[@schalms6726]

Routine-so essential to my practice! Thank you for the video!

[@hopi9761]

These are important topics. Please consider expanding on this. You'd be a pioneer in interweaving these topics together in more videos (witchcraft + processing & identifying feelings, meditation, mindfulness, ritual baths/self care witchy night time routines, etc). Great to watch you grow, Annie ❤❤❤

[@roberttravers7587]

Great video!😁

[@Allysunmoonstar]

I love when Hazel & Grimm join your videos! They are great for mental health too!❤❤

[@forestgyrl]

Great video, thank you. 100 % on the connecting wiith nature, clears out negativity. That's a main go to for me, helps clear the mind and let's me hear what i need to hear. Blessings ❤❤

[@valerieregina444]

i'm doing a research project on this exact topic! thank you universe for bringing this video to me

[@SerenityVonSavage]

I feel so awful today, but saw your video and put it on to calm myself. Your content has become such a go-to for being soothed while gaining knowledge.

[@jolovesblackcats]

Many thanks for this video, I have so many Books of Light on the go, as an Art Witch I have so many creative ideas. Suffering depression, anxiety & having lost my Mum suddenly in 2022, then 6 month later my step-son, I struggle on a daily basis. My Books help distract my negative thoughts & I do feel so much better by making a spread on 2 pages. I usually go on to do loads more because I enjoy it so much. Brightest Blessings to all. XXX

[@user-ru7vr9br9u]

Honestly thank you so much

[@aishakare_]

I loved this video so much! I've just gotten over a witchcraft slump (and just a general life/goals slump in general), and I notice that whenever I am back into doing my practice and connecting with nature, my mental health is soooo much better and much more stable and calm. Thank you for creating this and sharing the overlaps between mental health and magick practice ^.^

[@gailfairweather1515]

I really liked this video blessed be

[@cleverchaleigh]

How do you keep all of your plants alive in your home? It looks wonderful, but overwhelming. If I bring one little plant in the trailer it's dead!

[@Kellylmiller30]

Journaling, self reflection, self love, being confident and self assured…..so many things ❤

[@user-ru7vr9br9u]

Thank you from North😊 Denver Colorado

[@saltacienvecesmas]

please, stop taking money from better help, stop promoting them, stop helping then exploit others

[@johnadamski4012]

🌲🍀🐾💚Yep, you said it again, (and with such Sincerity) your deep CONNECTION to Nature, makes you (and the other Forest/Green Witches) So Awesome🙃. It's the "hold" you have on me, & probably others as well. The Greater the Sincerity, the Greater the MAGICK and You Annabel, have "Clout"😎💚🐾🍀🌲.

[@tjgnkc]

I am very much a neophyte in my practice, but have gotten away from it these last few months. I did feel a purpose, intent and a better way of dealing with stress when I was practicing a bit daily, I felt better mentally as I viewed it as self-care. Any tips on getting back into practicing after a break? Thanks for all the work you do on your channels.

[@lyssacockman]

Your dog looks exactly like my dog, Rose. It’s a little strange, but cool.

[@kristaransbottom6765]

Having puppy kisses is a big mental health boost!

[@bostrickland4970]

❤Love your Dog ❤❤❤❤ Yes mindfulness n meditation 🧘. ❤ purpose 🙂😊☺️

[@brendaking2362]

I definitely use witch craft and ritual to help with my depression, anxiety, and ADHD.

[@macewindu4442]

I am enjoying the benefits of watching a woman attuned to her body, mind and spirit.

[@DeadManVlog]

Great

[@carriezombie3147]

I love your calming energy so much!

[@tcconnection]

What is your dog's breed lineage please? Might help me identify another dog.

[@NickedBlade]

[@cecilyerker]

Imagine mentioning mental health and better help in the same breath, normally I’m all for sponsorships, but this one is just irresponsible

[@pearl5016]

It bothers me and I don't like it when people share publically their negative opinions on your choice in sponorship as if they pay your bills or have financially supported your platform and many offerings you have clearly shared to continue making content. It comes off disrespectful to your channel and your space and that is not okay.. It also takes away from the work you are doing with your platform which is so much more important and valuable. In my personal experience and probably unpopular opinion. Betterhelp helped me. Not every service is for everyone. But it helped me for where I was at and if content creators hadn't promoted them I would still be lost. So I hope you aren't discouraged by others opinions. Your work is beautiful and inspiring. You deserve to be acknowledged, recognized and supported for that. Thank you for sharing and may the spring bring the healing winds of change you need. Blessed be.

[@Ikinsyntheticpeople]

But betterhelp IS a terrible company, whether your experience was good or not. They quite literally sell your information, overcharge, and you'd know from all the horror stories that the therapists are NOT good. I'm glad it helped you, but please don't support them.
